Evil Uncle Dick Cheney Has His Way with Truth, Justice and the American Way, or, Dios mio! Que asco!

I must admit, the recent implosion of Uncle Dick’s Playhouse has been both fun and terrifying to watch. (Teddy Vargas – you are on the right track with The Museum of Intolerance.)

It is fun, for instance, to see former lackeys refuse to be the press & public’s whipping boys (I am thinking of Tenet, Comey & the Terminated 8). Even Ashcroft has come out looking good – who cannot feel some sympathy and even admiration for a man who refused to sign (while on his sickbed, even) the Evil Domestic Spying Plans of Alberto Gonzalez. Not that the lack of a signature meant that Al & Dick did not refuse to proceed with said nasty plan, anyway.

Uncle Dick’s plans to invade Iraq, take over the oil, install Halliburton as preferred vendor, subcontract security and law enforcement details to rinky-dink ad hoc companies, and so on, have fallen apart. Still, the scales refuse to fall from the eyes of Bush and those who desperately wish that he was the fine Manager of the Country that he promised to be, not the wooden dummy of Dick “Talks from Both Sides of His Mouth” Cheney.

Yes, we all did enjoy Tenet making the rounds of the chat shows, talking about how his words and those of others were duly twisted for the purpose of launching an invasion whose only objective was corporate revenge, greed, Malthusianism and the desire of a fake Texan to play cowboy at the expense of others.

It seems that no one, including “Good Old Brownie” from the Katrina Times, really wants to be hung out to dry, with nothing more than an “I don’t recall,” “I didn’t read that memo”, “the email was deleted”. Cheney and his cadre of truly-evil-doers have destroyed the lives of many people, and ruined many personal lives, all in the name of killing off the enemy (here defined as anyone in opposition to their very narrow-minded, anti-constitutional objectives).

So, it is fun to see these Hellhounds all falling over themselves to claim that their honor, their fides atque auctoritas have besmirched by well-placed adjectives and deceptive responses, if not outright lies. Yes, in fact, outright lies. Their deception has been so bold that they don’t even care if the ROC knows. No moral compass, no ethics, no real love Democracy (unless of course it is going exactly their way).

The terror I feel comes from knowing that we have come so close to a totalitarian state, that our checks and balances and civil rights have been severely mauled and partially amputated by the rabid manner in which Uncle Dick and the Bloom School have grasped at the reigns of power, have whipped people and institutions into submission, have reactivated the dead Goering School of Thought on Government.

To continue with this theme, the Big Business lobby has now secured its Guest Worker program, creating the needed Second Class person & future Scapegoat class that every totalitarian government needs. Vigilance is the only way to prevent the totalitarian state from emerging in the guise of “Right Wing Democracy”.
